The module is highly configurable allowing custom layout, interval between displays, restriction by language and more.
You can also choose wether the client shall use AJAX to fetch the Tweets, or if the server shall.
TweetScroller currently comes with two languagepacks; English and Norwegian. I'm happy to receive your translation.
Version 1.1 and 1.2 has bugfixes and added functionality for timestamping tweets. Version 1.3 has added German language pack. (Thank you Platzwart)
PS. I know it's not currently scrolling, but I thought the fading effect was nicer after some trials (Pro version can scroll and more)

Version 1.4Professional is released with tons of new effects, features, documentation and it is easier than ever to customize. It also has Scrolling effects!!!

Version 1.5.1Professional is released. Rewritten to support Joomla! 1.6 :D
Good module, installed and works with no problem, the only down thing, there is no option to enable the tweet time and the hashtags.
I tried perhaps seven to ten others. These either depended on JBLibrary (breaking my site), requiring cURL or fopen (just don't have that) or some other plugin, had the styling mixed with code, used scripts from other sites, or had annoying backlinks, or had no item limit. In short, most of the tools out there are just no good.
This one is simple, does the job, and is just technically simple. I use it for displaying searches. I also quite like the single spot it occupies. Really excellent!

Awesome little module, does exactly what I was looking for. I bought the pro version - it's a steal at only $5.
This is an ideal module for displaying Twitter tweets either by username or keyword.
I had a problem installing version 1.0 which was easily fixed and notified to the developer, who updated the module within hours, good support. The module is fairly easy to customise & re-style to suit your site.
